What is CVE-2023-39475?

A flaw exists within the ParameterVersionJavaSerializationCodec class of Inductive Automation Ignition, enabling remote attackers to execute arbitrary code on affected systems. This security gap arises from inadequate validation of user-supplied data, which leads to deserialization of untrusted data. The vulnerability allows an attacker to run code in the context of SYSTEM without requiring authentication, posing significant risks to the integrity of installations. Proper implementation of data validation is essential to mitigate this risk.
